Imperial Convoy Wiped Out
Hexos -- The victories in the Subterrel Sector continue with reports of a major fleet engagement yesterday that resulted in the destruction of a vital Imperial supply convoy in the Hexos system.
Admiral Raven reportedly sent the majority of the Subterrel Strike Force into the middle of an Imperial supply line, seriously disrupting shipping and wiping out the entirety of the defending Imperial forces. Reports from the front lines confirm that at least two-thirds of the convoy were destroyed, with the Imperial defenders refusing to surrender, resulting in the loss of the entire escort force.
We have received word of two squadrons in the Vigilance Starfighter Group who ensured the victory. Dragon Squadron spearheaded the starfighter forces in the assault, but reportedly Ragnarok Squadron played an even more crucial role, laying waste to an enemy supply depot which drew off much of the convoy’s escorts, and by extension allowed the entire operation to take place.
Yet despite the overwhelming success of the operation, losses were taken. While we are unable to confirm total losses of the strike force, six pilots have been confirmed to have killed in action. Memorial services for the fallen were held today onboard the Star Destroyer Redemption.
The triumph in the Hexos system is another in a string of major victories for the New Republic in the distant Subterrel Sector. If the campaign continues to proceed at the current pace, the strike force may return to the Greeop Sector much sooner than even the most generous of estimates.
